Self managed superannuation funds have become extremely popular in the last 5 to 10 years. This has been driven by many people contributing large sums into superannuation to gain large tax benefits, but wanting to manage their superannuation investments themselves.

What must be remembered with self managed superannuation funds is that they are a very complex area. If you make a mistake when operating your fund, the penalties (such as paying tax at 45% on your fund) are very high.
